Getting more information about an incident

When a traffic incident is shown on the map, the starting point of the incident is indicated with a traffic
symbol.

As you scroll the traffic sidebar up and down, the panel above the status bar shows more information
about each incident. This includes the type of incident, such as road works, and the delay caused by
this incident.

Tap the panel to view more information about the incident.

Tap the up and down arrow buttons to view separate incidents in the order they occur on your route.
